August 22, 200916 yr He's quite simply an awful, awful signing. I don't care who has a go at me for judging too early but he can't control a bouncing ball, he's slow and he just kicks and heads the ball up in the air anywhere. Waste of money! End of story!

Villa fan in our Village cant believe any premier side would sign him - you dont here Villa fans moaning that they have let him go ALL the signings this summer are DIRE
August 22, 200916 yr Villa fan in our Village cant believe any premier side would sign him - you dont here Villa fans moaning that they have let him go ALL the signings this summer are DIRE give them time, give the manager time, and more importantly give em your money
August 22, 200916 yr Villa fan in our Village cant believe any premier side would sign him - you dont here Villa fans moaning that they have let him go ALL the signings this summer are DIRE You didn't hear them moaning we had signed Cahill either
August 22, 200916 yr You didn't hear them moaning we had signed Cahill either So we have have signed ONE good player - No villa didn't rate him and he has come good for us - just wish the rest of the jokers he has brought in would deliver
August 22, 200916 yr Author You didn't hear them moaning we had signed Cahill either Even if I understood this sentence it's completely irrelevant. Is Zat Knight any good in your opinion or not? I've already made my mind up. He's awful.
August 22, 200916 yr You didn't hear them moaning we had signed Cahill either I think it it was quite the opposite!!
August 22, 200916 yr Even if I understood this sentence it's completely irrelevant. Is Zat Knight any good in your opinion or not? I've already made my mind up. He's awful. weren't you slagging off matty taylor this time last season?
August 22, 200916 yr Two fcuking games!!!! Not had time to settle in and they're consigning him the the rubbish basket. FFS, we must have the biggest bunch of impatient whingeing c?nts in the football league. Give it time.
August 22, 200916 yr Author weren't you slagging off matty taylor this time last season? Well it was the season before really Frank. I didn't really rate Matt in the first season we had him. Now I think he is inconsistent but I admit he did prove me wrong last season and become a valuable source of goals. I have a lot of respect for you and your opinions Frank but once again I have to say instead of telling me about other players... watch todays game and particularly once the American comes on. Zat Knight is no better than Danny Shittu and I'm prepared to back my judgement on this one and say he will be a disaster in our defence this season! Edited August 22, 200916 yr by Arnold Jackson

I'm not claiming he's anywhere near in the same league but Ronaldo looked shite after 2 games

I'm not claiming he's anywhere near in the same league but Ronaldo looked shite after 2 games Well I take being daft... You watch the game Oh and I was at Ronaldo's first game for Utd... At the time Bolton were 1 nil down and he came on for last half hour. He was AWESOME. Absolutely tore our defence to shreds and I said at the time... he's the best footballer I've ever seen. It really is that easy to tell how good a player is! Knight is a shocker!

I'm not claiming he's anywhere near in the same league but Ronaldo looked shite after 2 games Ronaldo made his debut against Bolton and was outstanding.I don't think Knight is that bad.The problem is he is playing in a negative team that doesn't score goals.Any defensive mistake means we can't win the game
August 22, 200916 yr Of all the defensive signings Zat Knight is ok! He did alright again today, with Cahill next to him he will be a good signing! It's ricketts and Robinson we need to worry about!!!
August 22, 200916 yr Ronaldo made his debut against Bolton and was outstanding.I don't think Knight is that bad.The problem is he is playing in a negative team that doesn't score goals.Any defensive mistake means we can't win the game OK maybe ronaldo was a bad choice for comparison but it took him a while before people saw past him being all tricks and flick and no end product. The point was there's plenty of players who were shite in their first few games and hae gone on to be very good players

August 22, 200916 yr Zat Knight did his job quite well today and was a big improvement on last week. How anybody can complain about Knight when weve got robinson in the team is crazy, Robinson is worse at left back than Henrik Pederson and im not exaggerating!

How anybody can complain about Knight when weve got robinson in the team is crazy, Robinson is worse at left back than Henrik Pederson and im not exaggerating! Pedders at left back got more slack than a real left back as everyone knew he's no more a left back than Sammy lee is a goalie

How anybody can complain about Knight when weve got robinson in the team is crazy, Robinson is worse at left back than Henrik Pederson and im not exaggerating! Did you go tyls orsee game? I've always thought Robbo looked half decent with a bit of grit when playing in away teams - whats up did he just get caught in possesion and gave away like saturday??
August 22, 200916 yr nope every club has them, some arsenal fans wrote into F365 after they dicked Everton comlaining about various stuff http://football365.com/mailbox/story/0,170...5496550,00.html I blame championship manager or whatever the latest arcade game is called (that's my age showing!) everyone these days is an expert.
August 22, 200916 yr Agree with the above, Robinson is a liability, the amount of time he lost posession, got pushed of ball, let players pass him showed he isntgood enough.
August 22, 200916 yr Did you go tyls orsee game? I've always thought Robbo looked half decent with a bit of grit when playing in away teams - whats up did he just get caught in possesion and gave away like saturday?? I watched it online. Robinson gave the ball away a lot, got caught in possesion a lot, got caught out of position a lot and hes such a short arse he got beat in the air every time. The guy is just plain shit, Samuel is so much better its bonkers dropping him for that tosser.
August 22, 200916 yr Author Zat Knight did his job quite well today Have to disagree... headed the ball up in the air for the goal and was woeful when it came back How anybody can complain about Knight when weve got robinson in the team is crazy The reason I am complaining about Knight is that the fella is obviously no footballer. I don't so much mind the full back signings as if they are rubbish we have options. At 4.5 million and with how high profile he is... we bought Zat to play every game as first choice centre half with Cahill. I'm extremely disappointed cos I don't really watch opposition defenders and I hoped he could play at bit! He just hoofs n hads the ball anywhere. I knew how bad Robinson was and I know we have better... JLS, Gardner, Taylor can all play left back! WE have AOB and Shittu to replace Zat Knight so everyone knows he's gonna be first choice. I genuinely upset to find out he's that bad! Just after the goal we got a corner... he came up for it... on his way back he found himself with the ball in midfield... he passed it straight to one of their forwards and they should have scored again. A miss from the American debutant saved us!
He's quite simply an awful, awful signing. I don't care who has a go at me for judging too early but he can't control a bouncing ball, he's slow and he just kicks and heads the ball up in the air anywhere. Waste of money! End of story!
